INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning and Community Development
FROM: Brandon Miles, Business Relations Manager
CC: Mayor Ekberg
DATE: March 29, 2022
SUBJECT: Lodging Tax Funding Requests
ISSUE
Review of a lodging tax funding request from the City of Tukwila to sponsor the City's
Juneteenth Celebration and to sponsor the Fiesta 5k Ole.
BACKGROUND
The City collects a 1% lodging tax on certain qualifying overnight stays in paid accommodations
(hotels/motels/Airbnb) in the City. State law limits the use of these funds to tourism promotion'.
There is currently just over $1 million in lodging tax funds available for use.
The City's Lodging Tax Advisory Committee (LTAC) reviews all requests for use of lodging tax
funds. LTAC then forwards a list of recommended applications to the City Council for its review
and consideration. If LTAC does not recommend an application be funded, that application is
not forwarded to the City Council. The City Council may approve or deny any of the applications
recommended by the LTAC. The City Council may also approve an application and increase or
decrease the dollar amount awarded2.
The City accepts applications on a rolling basis, with the LTAC reviewing requests monthly.
Pending Applications
At its March 11, 2022, meeting, the LTAC recommended approval of two funding request from
the City's Office of Economic Development.
1 RCW 67.28.080 (6) defines "tourism promotion" as "...activities, operations, and expenditures designed to
increase tourism, including but not limited to advertising, publicizing, or otherwise distributing information for the
purpose of attracting and welcoming tourists; developing strategies to expand tourism; operating tourism
promotion agencies; and funding the marketing of or the operation of special events and festivals designed to
attract tourists."
2 On August 17, 2016, the Washington State Attorney General's Office issued an informal opinion regarding
whether a municipality could change the dollar amounts recommended by the local lodging tax advisory
committee. Specifically, the informal opinion states:
"When awarding lodging tax revenues pursuant to RCW 67.28.1816(2)(b)(ii), a municipality may award amounts
different from the local lodging tax advisory committee's recommended amounts, but only after satisfying the
procedural requirements of RCW 67.28.1817(2), according to which the municipality must submit its proposed
change to the advisory committee for review and comment at least forty-five days before final action on the
proposal."

1. City of Tukwila, Juneteenth, ($10,000)
The City of Tukwila is requesting lodging tax funds to help support the City of Tukwila's 2nd
Annual Juneteenth Commemoration. The Juneteenth Commemoration is the oldest historical
celebration in the United States remembering the end of harmful and racist enslavement of
African American people. The City of Tukwila, in collaboration with the Tukwila School
District/Foster High School's Black Student Union, community-based organizations, the King
County Library System (KCLS), and the Tukwila community have started planning for an in-
person event at the Tukwila Sullivan Center.
As part of the City's branding strategy, it was identified that the City should work on creating
events tied to the City's multicultural population. The City of Tukwila lacks an authentic large
community event that could be a draw for people from around the region. Juneteenth could be
that event that the City grows overtime.
Last year's digital event drew a considerable amount of digital traffic to Experience Tukwila
website and social media. Last year's videos will be cut into a promotional spot for this year's
event.
Key metrics for the event will be total attendance, third party sponsorship participation, social
media metrics, and web visits.
LTAC Recommendation on Application: Do Fund.
Staff Recommendation on Application: Do Fund.
2. City of Tukwila, 2022 Fiesta 5k Ole ($4,000)
The City Office of Economic Development is requesting funding to support and sponsor the
Fiesta Ole 5K in May on a date to be determined. This event features a 5K race, music, and
food. This event has been held for a number of years in Seattle but is now looking for a new
location. Prior to COVID-19, the event had approximately 2,500 participants. With a new race
location, it is estimated that there will be approximately 1,000 participants but the race should
grow overtime. This is an established event with existing media partners and sponsors. The
event organizers have significant experience putting on 5K races and events.
The race is not fully confirmed, and staff wants to be able to support it if we are able to secure it
coming to the City
LTAC Recommendation on Application: Do Fund.
Staff Recommendation on Application: Do Fund.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The total request for the two lodging tax applications will not to exceed $15,000.00. The six-
year Tourism Financial Plan approved by the City Council in December of 2020 allocated a total
of $150,000 in lodging tax funding for sponsorships in 2021, 2022, and 2023.

INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning and Community Development
FROM: Nora Gierloff, DCD
BY: Max Baker, Development Supervisor
CC: Mayor Ekberg
DATE: April 4, 2022
SUBJECT: Ordinance to Extend Rezone, L16-0083
ISSUE
Proposed ordinance for an extension of a rezone from Low Density Residential to High Density
Residential in the Ryan Hill Neighborhood that expired June 26, 2021; proposed expiration date
to be 36 months from effective date of ordinance.
BACKGROUND
On June 18, 2018, Ordinance 2577 was approved by the City to amend the Comprehensive
Land Use and Zoning Map for a potential future project called Vintage@Tukwila. The proposal
was for a 247 -unit affordable senior housing apartment building The site in the Ryan Hill
neighborhood, which contains four parcels, was rezoned from Low Density Residential (LDR) to
High Density Residential (HDR) with a set of conditions, two of which set an expiration date for
the rezone:
5. The applicant must apply for a development permit for the proposed project within 36
months of the effective date of this ordinance.
6. Failure to comply with the conditions set forth herein shall cause the change to the
Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map to be null and void, and the subject property shall
revert to the zoning immediately preceding passage of this ordinance.
The effective date for Ordinance 2577 was June 26, 2018, meaning the applicant had until June
26, 2021 to apply for a development permit or the rezone would be considered null and void.
To -date, the applicant has not applied for a development permit.
This rezone extension request was first discussed by the Planning and Community
Development Committee at the February 2, 2022 Planning and Community Development. The
Committee was in favor of seeing a draft ordinance summarizing the proposed extension.
DISCUSSION
The attached Ordinance 2577 details the full conditions of the rezone. The Committee is now
being asked to review the proposed ordinance extending the rezone expiration date and send it
to C.O.W. for a public hearing.
The applicant has recently had a pre -application meeting and proposed a different design for
the project than was reviewed in 2018. The site is challenging to develop with steep slopes, a
wetland, and a stream buffer. The proponents are now asking for additional height above the 4
stories permitted in the HDR Zone in order to shrink the footprint of the building and minimize
site disturbance. This change would require them to apply to the City Council for a development
agreement in addition to the rezone. The revised project would provide 170 -units vs. the original
21

INFORMATIONAL MEMO
Page 2
247 -unit proposal but would reduce site impact because the applicant is proposing to minimize
the footprint of the building.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
None.
RECOMMENDATION
Forward the proposed rezone to the Committee of the Whole for a public hearing.

Findings
Exhibit B
The applicant requests an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan's Land Use Map and a
corresponding rezone from Low Density Residential (LDR) to High Density Residential (HDR) on
four adjacent undeveloped lots totaling 10.5 acres.
If the Comprehensive Plan's Land Use and the Zoning map changes are approved, the contract
purchaser proposes to construct 247 Senior Housing units in a four-story structure on the four
southerly parcels A - D. (Figure 1). Changing the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning maps are no
guarantee that the project would be built as initially proposed but is provided as an example of a
potential future development. The Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Designations and the
subject site are outlined in green. Existing LDR zoning is shaded in yellow, High Density
Residential located along 51 Avenue S. in brown, Commercial Light Industrial in purple and
Office in blue.
Comprehensive Plan Amendment and Rezone Decision Criteria (TMC 18.84.020):
The City Council's decision to grant a Comprehensive Plan map change and rezone shall be
supported by written findings and conclusions showing specifically that all of the following
conditions exist. Approval of the map changes requires the adoption of an ordinance.

Background
Annexation History
The subject property became part of Tukwila in 1989 as part of the Fire District #1 annexation.
At the time of annexation, the property was zoned to reflect the prior King County zoning. When
the Comprehensive Plan and city-wide zoning were subsequently reviewed, no changes were
proposed to the original King County designations.
Public Comment
On May 2, 2017, staff held the required public information meeting for residents and property
owners within 500 feet of the site. Several property owners attended the meeting to ask
Page 2 of 12 05/29/2018
questions. One written comment was received that stated opposition to additional traffic on
47Avenue S. because of safety concerns for local children and provided the opinion that 47
Avenue S. is not capable of handling the additional traffic volume. They requested that access to
the proposed multi -family development site be from Martin Luther King Junior Way South
(MLKJWS). The City Engineer responded that MLKJWS is designated by Washington State
Department of Transportation as limited access and therefore not available for ingress/egress.
The City Engineer has requested that at the time of a future development proposal that
additional traffic analysis be provided.
Because of the lapse in time since the required public meeting in May of 2017, and the initiation
of neighborhood -wide meeting in November of 2017 (see "Ryan Hill Neighborhood Study"
section below), staff held a second public meeting using an expanded mailing. There were no
citizens or comments received at the May 9, 2018 public meeting.
Rvan Hill Neiahborhood Study
Staff initiated a neighborhood -wide study that looked at existing conditions, potential
development scenarios and surveyed property owners and residents. The study revealed a
number of things that were unknown.
The residents and property owners have differing opinions about the future of the neighborhood.
Opinions generally depend on where they live or own property within the neighborhood. Higher
residential density and housing options are more desirable to property owners north of the
Seattle City Light right of way than south of the right of way.
Additionally, there was overall support for a neighborhood retail node that would provide
additional neighborhood services. Neighborhood input also indicated that the neighborhood's
existing characteristics were an asset as it was described as a "rural oasis in the city."
Except for the approximate 15 -acre Raisbeck property located along the west side of the
neighborhood and bordering MLKJRWS, which is the subject of this rezone request, future
development is likely to be small scale (short plats) and developed incrementally. Development
of less than 4 lots does not require frontal improvements nor would a through connection be
financially feasible for most short plat developers.
The lack of regional stormwater facilities and the difficulties associated with on-site storm
infiltration and/or detention on steep slopes impacts the near term developability of many
properties. In areas where redevelopment is more feasible, the needed water and sewer
infrastructure improvements identified in the study can be incrementally installed. The
incrementally added infrastructure will be able to support the long-term service objectives
outlined within the study.
Enhancing and improving the circulation system is feasible from an engineering standpoint but
not likely from a financial standpoint. The 1,200 -foot -long dead end road (twice the length of the
City's maximum standard) can be eliminated by connecting between the 109th/48th and
Page 3 of 12 05/29/2018
31
32
110th/49th Avenue S intersections. The City, however, has many street projects, and this new
connection is unlikely in the near future as a public project.
Finally, the Raisbeck property, which is the Vintage@Tukwila site, is a linchpin for extending
sewer service to properties north of the Seattle City Light right of way and south of S. 107th
Street.
Vicinitv/Site Information
The subject site is in the Ryan Hill neighborhood and is primarily characterized by
environmentally sensitive features located on or in its vicinity. The topographic survey provided
by the applicant gives details on vegetation, watercourse and wetlands as well as topographic
lines.
Landslide
Class 2 — Moderate and Class 3 - High landslide areas with topographic slopes that range from
15-40%.
Wetlands and Stream
The wetland and watercourse delineation report that was prepared for this application identified
the following:
Type 3 watercourse — Ryan Hill Stream. (Stream A) is located to the north of the site and
bisects the northeast corner of Parcel D.
Most of the wetlands are located around the periphery of the site but whose buffers extend onto
the site. The exception is Wetland B. Wetland B is a type IV located in the center of the
project site and requires 50 foot buffers. From the Tukwila Municipal Code: "Category IV
wetlands have the lowest levels of functions (scores less than 30 points) and are often heavily
disturbed. While these are wetlands that should be able to be replaced or improved, they still
need protection because they may provide some important functions. Any disturbance of these
wetlands will be considered on a case by case basis." (TMC 18.45.080 Wetlands Designations,
Ratings and Buffers)
Any future development will need to be setback from the wetlands and their buffers. Wetlands A
and AA are category II and are located along Ryan Hill Stream and are required to have 100 foot
buffers. Wetland C, a category III wetland, which has an 80 foot regulatory buffer, is located on
the south of the site and extends onto the Seattle City Light property.
There are two other category III wetlands, on the parcel north of the site. (Wetlands E & F —
Topographic Survey)

Land Use/Development History
There are 26 lots adjacent to 47th/109th/48th onto which the subject properties will access, 8 of
which are developed with a single family home. The lots range in size from 3,500 square feet to
41,765 square feet. All but three homes, addressed as 10709, 10719, and 10729 47th Avenue
S., were built pre -1964. The three addresses listed were built in 2003 and 2001 and are hooked
up to the City's sewer system. The remaining five homes are on septic systems. A review of
King County Assessor's property reports shows that they have designated that area as having
moderate to high traffic noise. In this area, the assessed value of the developed single family
homes range from $200,000 to $373,000.
Also within this specific 26 lot area, four Tots were acquired by King County for property owner
failure to pay property tax, two of which have since been sold at auction, which is evidence of
the instability in ownership in this area.
City Council Decision (TMC 18.84.030)
The City Council has the authority to deny, approve, or approve with conditions and safeguards
as it deems necessary to protect or enhance the health, safety, and welfare of the surrounding
area, and to ensure that the rezone fully meets the findings set forth in the Decision Criteria
(TMC 18.84.020,) which are outlined below.
1. The proposed amendment to the Zoning Map is consistent with the goals,
objectives, and policies of the Comprehensive Plan. (TMC18.84.020 - Criteria)
During the 2015 Comprehensive Plan update process, there was considerable interest in the
need to maintain and enhance residential neighborhoods, while providing housing choices.
The Comprehensive Plan describes LDR as follows:
Low -Density Residential: Areas primarily characterized by
detached single-family residential structures and their
accessory uses, along with educational, institutional, and
recreational uses. Density may vary by neighborhood and for
projects proposing innovative housing types such as cottage
housing. These uses and densities are modified where covered
by the Commercial Redevelopment, Urban Renewal, Tukwila
South, and Public Recreation Overlays.
The Comprehensive Plan describes HDR as follows:
High -Density Residential: Areas characterized by larger and
higher density multi -family buildings and their accessory uses,
along with educational, institutional, and recreational uses.
Although not stated, high density neighborhoods have typically been located adjacent to and
along major transportation corridors. They have been used to separate noisier uses and areas
from the single family areas and to provide housing in neighborhood and regional centers of the
City.
Page 7 of 12 05/29/2018

36
The Comprehensive Plan's highest priority objective is the following:
Objective. "To improve and sustain residential neighborhood quality and livability."
Numerous goals and policies clarify and support this objective. Some representative examples
from the Housing and Residential Neighborhoods elements follow:
Housing Goal 3.1 The City of Tukwila provides the City's fair share of regional housing.
Housing Policy 3.6.1 Encourage long-term residency by improving neighborhood quality, health
and safety.
Residential Neighborhoods Goal 7.1 Residential Land Use Pattern: A land use pattern that
encourages a strong sense of community by grouping compatible and mutually supportive uses
and separating incompatible uses.
Residential Neighborhoods Goal 7.4 Neighborhood Sustainability: Continuing enhancement
and revitalization of residential neighborhoods to encourage long-term residency and
environmental sustainability.
Residential Neighborhoods Implementation strategies support retaining LDR zoning and
encourage infrastructure improvements as follows:
• Continued emphasis on existing land use patterns to protect and preserve residential
uses.
• Investment in public works and infrastructure improvements.
• Continue to develop and implement the Residential Street Program in the CIP.
• Development of a variety of new housing, including single-family homes.
Residential Neighborhood and Sub -Area Vitality
City -planned utility improvements and extensions place priority on improving and sustaining
residential neighborhood quality and livability. Utility investments affect neighborhood quality of
life and the ability to realize established visions for specific sub -areas. (City of Tukwila
Comprehensive Plan, 2015)
Tukwila functional plans
Tukwila parks and open space do not exist in this neighborhood. The Parks Recreation
and Open Space (PROS) Plan has identified the need for a neighborhood park but
implementation is shown beyond 2023. A "Ryan Hill Park" is planned "following the upgrade of
the local sewer service in the area, which would drive additional housing demand." (Tukwila
Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Plan; 2013)
Sanitary sewer service. The Ryan Hill neighborhood encompasses 116 acres with less
than a mile of sewer. The capital plan for Sanitary Sewer identifies a $1.9 million sewer
revitalization for the area but the timeline is beyond 2022. The justification for the project are the
existing septic systems that are failing and creating public health hazards.
Comprehensive Plan policy 12.1.22
Serve all existing and potential residences and businesses with a sewer utility.
The Capital Facilities Plan identifies a $1.9 million sewer project for the neighborhood with the
justification that septic systems are failing in the area.
Page 8 of 12 05/29/2018
The proposed project would extend sanitary sewer from MLKJWS on the site and then per the
City's Infrastructure Design and Construction Standards Manual extend it to the east property
line. Bringing the sewer an additional 100 feet to the adjacent right of way would provide an
opportunity for future extensions and hook-ups to the sanitary system.
Tukwila water service is available to serve the higher intensity land use; however,
because the system is not looped the pressure is not adequate for larger buildings.
Construction will likely require modifications to structure size to accommodate the lower
pressure.
Access in the neighborhood is via two neighborhood arterials — Ryan Way and 51st
Avenue S., which have adequate capacity but are not complete streets. Ryan Way does not
have bicycle facilities and 51st Avenue S. has sporadic pedestrian facilities. The local access
street, 47th Avenue S., meets the minimum street right of way width standard of 50-60 feet, is
over 1,000 feet in length and does not contain a turn -around. 600 feet is the City standard for
cul-de-sacs the City standard for neighborhood block size is no more than 1,000 feet on one
side and double loaded Tots on the width.
On the other lots along 47th Avenue S., future single family development is likely to be through
individual single family home construction permits and short plats that do not typically result in
sidewalks or public street improvements.
The condition of the street however is not adequate for a higher density project. For example,
the pavement width and shoulders are uneven.
Financial Planning Model Policy
FP -6 — The financing of limited benefit capital improvements (i.e. private development)
should be borne by the primary beneficiaries of the improvement. The principle
underlying limited benefit is that the property is peculiarly benefited and therefore the
owners do not in fact pay anything in excess of what they receive by reason
of such improvement.
Policy FP -7 — Each Enterprise Fund shall be reviewed annually and it must have a
rate structure adequate to meet its operations & maintenance and long-term capital
requirements.
The program manager for the Sewer Comprehensive Plan stated that developers must
bear the burden of extending sewer into this area.
2. The proposed amendment to the Zoning Map is consistent with the scope and
purpose of TMC Title 18, "Zoning Code," and the description and purpose of the zone
classification applied for. (TMC 18.84.020 Criteria)
If approved, the requested map change would rezone approximately 10.5 acres from Tukwila's
Low Density Residential to the High Density Residential designation/zone. The Comprehensive
Plan states that high-density residential areas are characterized by larger and higher density
multi -family buildings and their accessory uses, along with education, institutional and
recreational uses. The HDR District (TMC 18.14.010) implements the Comprehensive Plan
designation of high density residential. The Zone is used to designate areas that allow up to
Page 9 of 12 05/29/2018
37
38
22.0 dwelling units per net acre. Senior citizen housing is allowed up to 60 dwelling units per
acre, subject to additional restrictions. It is intended to provide a high-density, multiple -family
district that is also compatible with commercial and office areas.
Consideration was given to the land uses and development standards in the two different zones.
The difference between the two zones in terms of land use are that in HDR the following uses
are permitted and are not allowed in LDR: boarding homes; convalescent, assisted living and
nursing homes for up to 12 patients; townhouses and multifamily (22 units per acre) and senior
housing (at 60/units per acre;) libraries, museums, and public art galleries; and manufactured
home parks. If the property were rezoned as HDR, and did not redevelop as currently proposed
by the applicant, the range of other uses listed above could be developed as permitted uses.
3. There are changed conditions since the previous zoning became effective to
warrant the proposed amendment to the Zoning Map; (TMC 18.84.020(3)) and
In November of 2016, central Puget Sound voters approved a funding package that includes the
construction of a new light rail station within a mile of the site. The Station is scheduled for
completion in the 2030s and provides access to a high capacity transit system. One half mile is
the usual walk shed for rail systems but bus routes are rerouted to provide feeder service to the
stations. Boeing Access Road and S. Ryan Way will be a major route to serve the station. The
opportunity to have high quality transit access was not funded until 2016.
The current economic impact on the regional housing market was not expected. The price of
homes is rising faster in the Seattle area than anywhere else in the nation. Since the downturn
in 2007, home prices are up 23.9%. Seattle leads the nation in year over year and month over
month home price growth. The applicant proposes an affordable senior housing project.
A major initiative to fund, build and replace City buildings (Public Facilities Plan, Tukwila 2016)
will impact the overall Capital Improvement Program and likely delay any identified
neighborhood infrastructure improvements thereby delaying upgrades and public infrastructure
in this neighborhood. Development is and will be expected to continue to pay for itself.
4. The proposed amendment to the Zoning Map will be in the interest of furtherance
of the public health, safety, comfort, convenience, and general welfare, and will not
adversely affect the surrounding neighborhood, nor be injurious to other properties in the
vicinity in which the subject property is located. (TMC 18.84.040(4))
The City's Capital Facilities Plan shows the need for urban infrastructure improvements in this
neighborhood for a neighborhood park and a sewer system to serve the area. Timing and
funding for these facilities, however, has not been identified. The lots that are south of S. 107th
Street and west of 50th Avenue S. are dependent on access to the sanitary sewer line in
MLKJWS.
The rezone will allow a project that will provide affordable housing, provide new construction that
could serve to anchor the area and create a higher standard of design quality as required by the
City's rigorous design review process. Development of the site would improve the infrastructure
for the neighborhood and make sanitary sewers possible in the near term for property owners.
Page 10 of 12 05/29/2018
CONCLUSIONS
Below are the four decision criteria in bold and the conclusions drawn from the findings above.
1. The proposal is consistent with the goals, objectives and policies of the
Comprehensive Plan.
The 2015 Comprehensive Plan update reaffirmed Tukwila's highest priority objective, "To
improve and sustain residential neighborhood quality and livability." This neighborhood is a
challenging area because of the lack of public facilities and environmentally challenging land of
slopes and water. The subject site, although it borders the interstate and MLKJWS on the west,
has no access except through a local access street that is bordered by single family homes.
The public facilities identified to support and serve this area are not funded in the near or mid-
term. The proposal would be able to pay for urban services and amenities that would support
the overall livability and quality of this residential neighborhood. Specifically, access to the site is
via 47th Avenue S. and S. 109 Street west of 47th Avenue S, which are not adequate for higher
density travel, would need to be improved. Their improvement would improve overall
neighborhood quality; therefore, the City Council concludes that as part of the future project and
as a condition of this rezone, the applicant should make street improvements that meet the
City's infrastructure standards including sidewalks.
Sanitary sewer would be extended as part of the future project from MLKWJS onto the site and
to the east property line. To benefit the neighborhood, the extension of the sewer to the
adjacent public right of way would also fulfill the Comprehensive Plan's goal of improving
neighborhood quality and livability and fulfilling the policy of serving all residences with sewer
service. The City Council concludes that conditioning the rezone to require the extension of the
sewer line to the right of way to the east will increase the access and the feasibility and decrease
the total system cost for sanitary sewers in the neighborhood and therefore meet the criteria.
2. The proposal is consistent with the scope and purpose of the Zoning Code and the
description and purpose of the HDR zone.
High density development lends itself to clustering and thereby preserving sensitive areas and
open space. The entire property would be under one owner and manager thereby limiting the
incremental impacts typical of individual homeowners on trees, wetlands and streams.
3. There are changed conditions since the previous zoning became effective to
warrant the amendment to the Map.
Residents of the City have stated that they are struggling and being displaced due to the impact
of rising rents and the high cost of homeownership. The unprecedented economic impact
caused by the regional demand for housing is hurting members of the community who are
economically challenged. The proposal could provide affordable housing for seniors as well as
basic public facilities that would support the surrounding property owners.

4. The proposal shall be in the interest of furthering the public health, safety, comfort,
convenience and general welfare and will not adversely affect the neighborhood or
be injurious to the properties in the vicinity.
Of benefit to the neighborhood with the project would be the opportunity to connect to sanitary
sewer and a reduced overall cost because of the approximate 800 linear feet that would be built
by the project developers. Development of the subject site requires the applicant to bring the
sewer line onto the property and to the east property line. The City Council concludes that in
order to meet the criteria the rezone should be conditioned with the requirement to bring the
sewer line an additional 100 feet to 47t" Avenue S. to assist with the availability of the system for
expanded neighborhood use.
Comment from emergency service providers and the results of the traffic analysis indicate that
left turning movements are difficult onto S. Ryan Way and would be a concern with increase in
trips associated with the rezone. In order to further the interests of public safety, comfort and
convenience, the City Council concludes that the rezone should be conditioned to require left
turn pockets to facilitate and assist in maintaining adequate level of service and safety in
entering and exiting 47th Avenue S. from S. Ryan Way.
The City Council concludes that redesignating the site to HDR would be in the best interest of
the neighborhood subject to specific conditions that would support the Comprehensive Plan's
priority of creating high quality residential neighborhoods and further the public's health, safety
and comfort.

INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning and Community Development Committee
FROM: Derek Speck, Economic Development Administrator
CC: Mayor Ekberg
DATE: March 28, 2022
SUBJECT: Update on Tukwila Village Community Development Association
ISSUE
Update on the Tukwila Village Community Development Association (TVCDA).
BACKGROUND
On January 18, 2022 Economic Development staff presented our 2022 work plan to the
Planning and Community Development committee. One of the items on the workplan is to
"position Tukwila Village Community Development Associates for self-sufficiency" and the
Committee asked staff to return later in the year to provide a more detailed update on TVCDA.
Note: the workplan used the word "associates" but "association" is more appropriate.
DISCUSSION
The Tukwila Village Community Development Association was formed in 2018. A description of
the formation partners, process, history, and rationale is included in the attached staff memo to
the Planning and Community Development Committee dated February 23, 2021.
TVCDA is lead by an all -volunteer board that currently has seven members (see attached list).
Over the past four years the board has focused on forming itself and seeking a partner
organization who can manage the rentals of the community spaces at the Sullivan Center. It has
been a challenging four years with the pandemic and finding a venue manager. Once the Board
is ready to select a venue manager, TVCDA will execute a lease of the community spaces at
the Sullivan Center while simultaneously executing a property management agreement with the
venue manager. Until that time, any venue rentals are handled by the property ownership group,
Tukwila Village Development Associates, LLC.
Currently, the board is reviewing a venue management proposal from Independent Living
Associates, LLC which is a business that jointly operates Tukwila Village with Sustainable
Housing for Ageless Generations (SHAG). Staff is hopeful that the Board will be ready to
approve the lease and property management agreement in April. After that, staff anticipates the
Board will reach out to other non-profit organizations that serve the Tukwila area to better
understand how TVCDA should direct its efforts.

INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning and Community Development Committee
FROM: Derek Speck, Economic Development Administrator
CC: Mayor Ekberg
DATE: February 23, 2021
SUBJECT: Representation on Tukwila Village Community Development Association
ISSUE
Staff is seeking Council direction on City representation on the board of directors of the Tukwila
Village Community Development Association.
BACKGROUND
In 2007 the City Council adopted a vision for Tukwila Village. The vision intended for Tukwila
Village to be a welcoming place where all residents can gather and connect with each other. It
was intended as an active, vibrant, mixed-use development that would include elements such
as a library, retail, restaurants, public meeting space, and an outdoor plaza and could include
other elements such as office, live/work, and residential space. Tukwila Village was intended as
a privately owned development that would not be under City control but would have some
spaces as community amenities.
In order to accomplish the vision, in 2012 the City Council approved a Disposition and
Development Agreement (DDA) with the developer of Tukwila Village that set out the deal terms
to accomplish that vision. To achieve community access on private property, Section 2.8 of the
DDA provided for the creation of an independent, community based non-profit organization that
would, through a lease agreement, manage, operate, maintain, and promote the use of the
community room with kitchen and plaza to serve as community amenities to benefit not only the
privately owned property of the Tukwila Village development but also the community at large.
The property owner, Sustainable Housing for Ageless Generations (SHAG), and the City
cooperated to create the community organization and in 2018 created the Tukwila Village
Community Development Association (TVCDA) as a Washington State non-profit corporation. It
was created as its own legal organization and is not a board, commission, or other type of entity
controlled by the City of Tukwila. During the creation process, the three organizations realized
the mission of the non-profit should be broader than just managing the community facilities and
so patterned it after community development associations. Its articles of incorporation describe
the mission which includes the following: "to improve the social welfare, including the physical,
emotional, and economic health, of members of the public in the City of Tukwila and the
residents of Tukwila Village by promoting arts, economic development, education, health, and
community building." One could summarize TVCDA's mission as "to improve the quality of life
for the Tukwila community."

INFORMATIONAL MEMO
Page 2
In 2018 the TVCDA Board adopted bylaws that provide for the property owner and the City to
each appoint one member to the Board of Directors. This was intended to ensure the TVCDA
Board would balance the interests of the property owner and community. The initial two
directors were named in the articles of incorporation with Mayor Ekberg as the City's
representative. This enabled the formation to proceed quickly and indicated the importance of
this non-profit as a way to attract others to join the Board. The Mayor continues to serve in that
role.
DISCUSSION
This item is being brought to the Council to understand if the Council would like to have a role in
the City's future appointment to the TVCDA Board of Directors. Staff sees four main options:
(1) Although TVCDA is not a City board or commission, the Mayor could appoint the City's
representative and the Council could confirm the appointment which would follow the
City's standard process for appointments to City boards and commissions. Appointees
could include any City elected official, a staff member, a resident, or anyone else.
(2) The Council could express intent that this position is to be filled by an elected official
(either the Mayor or a Councilmember) with the latter to be appointed by the Council.
(3) The Council could decide the City should not participate.
(4) The Council does not have to take a position. The decision for City participation would
continue to rest with the Administration.
Some of the reasons in favor of the first two options is because it gives the City a stronger
position through which to influence the work and board composition of TVCDA. It is a method to
influence the policies for managing the community spaces at Tukwila Village to serve the whole
community. TVCDA also has a broader mission than managing the community spaces and it is
a way for the City to have an integral role in achieving TVCDA's broader mission.
One of the main reasons in favor of the third option, is that the City may prefer to not have a
direct connection to setting policies for public use of the community spaces at Tukwila Village,
especially because those policies can be controversial. In addition, participation in any
organization requires a commitment of time.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
No financial or budget impact.
RECOMMENDATION
The Committee is being asked to provide direction on the four options above and forward a
recommendation to the March 8, 2021 Committee of the Whole meeting for discussion.
